ECU Relocation

[91PathSE]

How hard is it to move the ecu to the glovebox, whats involved in moving it, and how much time should it take....I get 2 hours a day of shop use occasionaly ans extra hour at the end of the day...I have early release.

 

I decided I want to move it for a few reasons

I have a hole passenger side floor..being fixed soon

I am typically crossing water thats just below the hood line to get onto most trails around here..I have been extremely lucky with minimal water inside

I'm terrified of getting stuck in the woods with a wet ecu

 

any help/pics would be appreciated

Actually, you could probably take some time and pull the seat and get the ECU unbolted and free up the wires then just leave them sit on the front floor board until you can take the time to remount it.

I just got done with the JGC and frame patch, I'm going out now to look at the ECU, and pull up the carpet and decide where to mount it/ difficulty to get it to that spot.

 

If I wasnt going through water everytime I go wheeling, I would leave it alone, but I'm afraid of sinking in a clay/mud pit and getting filled with water.

Well I ment if you could only work on it 2 hrs at a time, do what you can in that time, and leave things hanging, but plugged in and working between work times so it is usable.
